Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: The Tiny Penguin stamp is fully assembled and wood-mounted, requiring no setup beyond applying ink.
Compatibility: This stamp is compatible with most standard ink pads (sold separately). It works best on smooth surfaces such as paper, cardstock, and certain craft boards. Avoid using on porous or highly textured materials where the detail may be lost.
Care: To ensure longevity and optimal performance:
- Inking: Lightly tap the stamp onto the ink pad. Avoid pressing too hard, which can cause ink to spread into the rubber.
- Cleaning: Immediately after each use, clean the stamp by gently wiping it with a damp cloth or a stamp cleaner. For stubborn ink, use a soft brush.
- Drying: Allow the stamp to air dry completely before storing.
- Storage: Store the stamp in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the rubber from drying out or cracking.
